14 DAY TRIAL // If you’re looking to move to Windows Phone, but want a device that should run Windows 10 Mobile flawlessly, search no more because this is pretty much the best offer you can find these days.
Best Buy is selling the Lumia 640 for just $29.99 (€28), which is the exact same price as the one on Black Friday in late 2015. This is obviously a limited-time offer, so you need to hurry up to buy one while it’s still available.
Before anything, there are several things that you should take into consideration. First of all, while the device comes without a contract, it’s still locked to AT&T, so you can only use it in their network. Then, the offer is available only for the black version, but that shouldn’t be a problem given its price and that there are plenty of cases out there in every color you want.
One of the first models to get Windows 10 Mobile
Lumia 640 comes with surprising value for the money and the technical specifications are the living proof. It all starts with the 5-inch screen with a resolution of 1280x720 pixels and continues with Snapdragon 400 processor that runs at 1200 MHz. The device has 1 GB of RAM and 8 GB of storage space, but it also includes microSD card support for additional storage.
It also has an 8-megapixel main camera, as well as a 0.9-megapixel front unit for selfies and video calls.
Microsoft previously said that all Windows Phone devices would receive the upgrade to Windows 10 Mobile and hinted that Lumia 640 and 640 XL would be included in the first wave of models to get it. According to the company itself, the rollout is projected to start later this month, so if you get the Lumia 640, the chances are that you can upgrade it to Windows 10 in just a few days.
